Jonathan Turley: The White House is right about Comey’s potential criminality.
Whatever respect I’d ever harbored for Comey has evaporated over the past year and a half.

Huma
New emails reveal that she mishandled classified information much more than we previously knew.
This is my shocked face.
[Update mid morning]
As I’ve noted before, the Democrats’ tolerance of the Clinton’s corruption was the final straw for me with them in the 90s. And it continues.
Jeff Sessions
So Trump called him an idiot, and told him to quit? Well, he is, and he should. But why does he still have his job? For someone who became famous in part for publicly firing people, Trump sure seems to have a hard time actually doing it.

Speaking of idiots, Joe Biden is saying that people who support due process under the law are just like Nazis. Right.
Susan Rice
She lied about Benghazi, and (unsurprisingly) she lied about the unmasking. More thoughts from Ann Althouse:
[I]t sure looks like members of an incoming Republican administration were spied on by a Democratic political operative who happened to find a meeting suspicious.
You don’t say.
The Clinton Fix Was In
We already knew that, but this is just confirmation that Comey was never conducting a serious investigation.
The FBI
Obama is still running it.
I hadn’t realized how deep the rot was. This is not how the Republic is supposed to work. And this wouldn’t be happening if Jeff Sessions was alive.
Debbie’s IT People
The indictment is very strange:
the indictment is an exercise in omission. No mention of the Awan group’s theft of information from Congress. Not a hint about the astronomical sums the family was paid, much of it for no-show “work.” Not a word about Wasserman Schultz’s keeping Awan on the payroll for six months during which (a) he was known to be under investigation, (b) his wife was known to have fled to Pakistan, and (c) he was not credentialed to do the IT work for which he had been hired. Nothing about Wasserman Schultz’s energetic efforts to prevent investigators from examining Awan’s laptop. A likely currency-transportation offense against Alvi goes uncharged. And, as for the offenses that are charged, prosecutors plead them in a manner that avoids any reference to what should be their best evidence.
As with the IRS, where the hell is Jeff Sessions? He didn’t recuse himself from this. My confidence in our justice system continues to plummet.
The IRS Abuse Of Power
Yes, seven year is too long to wait for the answers.
Trump is too ignorant to care, but I do not understand why Jeff Sessions is letting this continue.
[Update a while later]
Missing link, fixed. Sorry. Also, this one seems to be mostly behind the paywall. Not sure how I managed to see the whole thing earler.
Cancer, Herpes and Metformin
Another example of how our current drug-regulatory process may be killing people. I may start taking metformin. Since everyone has diabetes these days, I should be able to get a prescription for it.
This Week’s Vandenberg Launch
Even though they have enough performance for a return to launch site, they’ll still be landing downrange on the ship (or perhaps closer to the site). Chris G. explains why.
